Emmerdale fans are buzzing with speculation that Billy Fletcher, played by Jay Kontzle, might find new love as his wife Dawn (Olivia Bromley) continues to share romantic moments with Joe Tate (Ned Porteous).
Since his arrival in the village in December 2018, Billy has transformed into a devoted family man.His journey has been tumultuous, with a rocky marriage to Dawn, the heartbreak of their son Evan’s leukaemia diagnosis, and entanglement in unlawful boxing activities.
Lately, Dawn has been unfaithful to Billy with none other than Joe, who made a dramatic return during the festive season.
Just last week, despite her efforts to stay faithful, Dawn succumbed to Joe’s allure once more, sharing a kiss in her son’s bedroom.
While viewers are convinced that Dawn and Joe’s affair will escalate, there’s chatter about potential sparks flying for Billy too.
